You bet. That's one of it prime uses. I have used it at our old house and at our new house to balance the heating system.

I don't personally do HVAC work (but I am landlord with rental houses, I have flipped a bunch of houses, and installed lots of HVAC, so I am often around it) and I would say this is at least adequate if not perfectly fine for HVAC work. It seems to be sensitive enough to tell the difference within half a degree between say, the cold concrete patio and the leg of patio furniture a foot above the concrete. I think you would be happy with its performance for HVAC work.

The more ventilation the better. As long as you have pleanty of soffit vents three would work well particularly if you live in a climate that has high heat and humidity

I would not suggest it. This unit needs full airflow all around it. I have mine in a cabinet space with ample air circulation, but it died after a year. You need to find one that is actually "under counter installation" approved.

In my opinion, that shouldn't be a problem. The unit is on casters which elevates it a bit. In addition, the outside of the unit runs cool to the touch

Yes, it is something we are looking at for follow on projects. Our next project is a unit for a central air system, that will use fresh air when available and use the central air fan and filter.

As long as there is good air circulation, I think it would be ok. You might do a ceiling temperature check using a charcoal grill where you plan on placing the unit prior to ordering.

It'll easily and accurately do that. My iffice is in an unfinished suite and the HVAC is almost 20' up and it gave me the same measure that the computer system did via remote on my laptop. I use it lots when I gave complaints in the offices where they say they are either too hot or too cold. Furniture fixtures are akmist never desugned with HVAC flow in mind and the ladies also dont like wearing layers so this backs me up when theyve asked for a specific tempAnd we set the computer for that and they complain. Cant argue with a digital lazer readout! Hope this helps. I love the dang thing! Even use mine for external barbie temps when slow cooking or smokong. Blessings, enjoy.

Well, I use this dehumidifier in my house of 1000 sq. feet - and although I know it may be too small for it - I was looking for something that wasn't an energy hog - it does cost me $20.00 a month but it did remove moisture in the air. My house is sealed up tight with new windows so I wasn't battling the outside elements. I would say for your size it would be fine - just know it runs all the time - the fan runs and the compressor shuts off when it reaches a desired level. Hope this helps Dave

No. I used it to keep my closet cool because I turned it into an office. It does a great job moving the air in spaces like that.

It would do pretty well. Keep in mind no foot pedal to vary your heat on the fly. It has a very stable arc once you set it.

That's similar to what we had to do. It will certainly improve you heat problem and the relative difference in out out will probably not impact you. Remember, you won't feel a dramatic change like turning up the forced air heater. I agree also with Susan and Matthew.

hi, mine was installed by electrician, works perfectly, a balancing kit might help your situation, thanks.

It will certainly move the air around. It won't cool the air or change the humidity level though. I use it in Santa Monica when the outside air is cool and the inside air is hot. it works great for that.

Sure, but you might want to put a speed control on ..it pulls a lot of air..might be a little noisy too unless you mount it above the ceiling

Yes, it will do the trick. It only cools the room you are currently in. Very portable and easy to use and clean. For the price, it's decent.

We bought this product over a year ago to maintain the temp in our pump house. It runs when the temp in the pump house falls below 45 degrees. This unit is easy to install and does the job as intended. I would not recommend mounting this unit vertically because the electronics could overheat or worse. If you look closely at the picture, you'll see venting above, below and in front of the heating elements. I would contact the manufacturer to be sure.
